An essential function of the extreme C‐terminus of MDM2 can be provided by MDMX

S Uldrijan, WJ Pannekoek, KH Vousden - The EMBO journal, 2007 - embopress.org
MDM2 (HDM2) is a ubiquitin ligase that can target the p53 tumor suppressor protein for
degradation. The RING domain is essential for the E3 activity of MDM2, and we show here …
